I've been using Seamonkey email for years and just switched to Thunderbird. TB did not import the emails I have stored in the folders; how can I get them into TB? PS: I'm old and not very PC literate!! LOL

I suggest grabbing a very old copy of Thunderbird that still imported from "Netscape Suite" (Seamonkey is that animal with a new name so import should work)

This is about as far back as I can go and have the familiar tabbed user interface. http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/thunderbird/releases/3.1.19/win32/en-US/

Once you have done the import, reinstall the current version.
